Just adding my condolences for you all. Losing a child at any age is awful for us and 41 is far too young.

I'm sorry I don't know the piece you are referring to.

I suspect you will be feeling that you have to be strong for your other daughter and the rest of your family, but your own loss is immense and I hope you have people to look out for you.

You are right, it will get better, but it is a long journey and likely to feel very raw for a while. I hope you can comfort each other along the way.

xx flowers

Kupari45 I'm so sorry to hear your news. Please accept my condolences to you and your family?

I'm afraid I don't have the information you require, but hope someone will remember. If you message GNHQ they may be able to help you.

Brenda I am so sorry for you and your grandchildren and know that words can be of very little comfort just now.
The days ahead will be a struggle but I hope you do eventually find those calmer waters. flowers

Sorry I can't help you about that thread but just want to tell you how sad I am to hear your situation. I don't think it actually does get any better, I suspect you simply get used to it. I cannot imagine how hard it must be to watch your child dying and then to cope with her death. I feel so very sad for you and your family. flowers

I hope there is someone on gn who can find the right words for you, it is beyond me.

My lovely daughter died yesterday of Breast Cancer. She was 41 and had 3 young kids. So Im in in pieces today. However I am trying to comfort my other daughter who is very distressed. I was telling her that it will very graduaily get better. Now the reason I am posting here and not on the Bereavement Forum is: DOES ANYONE REMEMBER ABOUT, LAST SUMMER A LADY POSTED A COMFORTING PIECE ABOUT BEREAVEMENT. She likened it to being tossed in a raging sea and clinging on for dear life, and gradually you reach calm waters. I hope some of you with good memories might be able to help. I am keeping busy helping with the children today. However I thought the above article might bring some comfort to us all.
